THE MAKING OF
AN EDITORIAL
sitting comfortably in front of
your computer, savoring with
sweet anticipation the luscious
programs which beckon from the
following pages, you may never
have wondered what transpires
behind the scenes here at the
luxury office suites of SoftSide in
Beautiful Downtown Milford.
There Is a story behind the words
you are reading at this moment A
story that must be told. (However,
we are not implying that It must be
READ— feel free to abandon me
here in mid-sentence and suc-
cumb to the blandishments of this
month's adventures.)
A prtze-wtnnmg editorial iwgms
with an idea; ttta lack of trophies
on my <tm»k attest* to this fact. The
Mm tafcM on life as it la typed into
SCRIPSIT's forgiving arms. Brief
moments later we see a finished
document emerging from the
printer.
Next step is a wfiisper quiet ride
in our lushiy carpeted elevator,
down to the second floor where we
pause briefly but reverently just
outside the Art Room door.
This is the place where the
merely mediocre is made im-
mortal. Thesidll of these excitingly
beautiful artisans is beyond belief.
(I am not ashamed to say that I
know an artisian well.)
Gail, who has come to be known
as "Twinkle-fingers" — ostensibly
tor her amazing speed and ac-
curacy on the typesetting ma-
chine — sets up the text In Its
magazine format. When she has
finished her btisterlng display of
keytioard dexterity, the machine
ctlcks to Itsstf for a few niom«fits
and then disgorges a box about
the size of an ostrich egg which
contains a wide roll o1 film. When
the film has been developed, ac-
companied by many strange
gurgling sounds and mood-
altering odors, it Is ready to be
"pasted-up".
Elaine and Donna take over
now. Starting with only a few
sheets of thin cardboard, faintly
marked with arcane symbols
(meaningful only to thetrue Artist)
and using their Official Artist's
Implements, they draw borders,
insert illustrations, and even
correct spelling errors discovered
at the last second. This is ac-
complished by physically cutting
out the offending letter, and
delicately but firmly inserting a
tiny piece of film containing the
correct one. When the finished
article comes back from the
printers, there is no sign of the
original mistake, as you can sea.
The next major event in the life
of our editorial is the dreaded
Deadline Day, This is the day when
the sheets of cardboard con-
taining the treasured document
are slipped into an envelope along
with all the other articles, pro-
grams and special features that
comprise a typical SoftSide,
A trusted courier then whisks
the precious envelope off to the
printers. About a week later, a
truckful of cartons is unloaded in
the notorious Bulk Mail Room. It is
here that a skilled crew of high-
school students prepare thou-
sands of SoftSides for world-wide
distribution. Adults are not al-
lowed to assist in this endeavor,
since our company insurance
does not cover deafness caused
by radio rock music inflicted at
maximum volume.
Scant days later (or weeks if you
live on the west coast and dont
have a first class subscription),
SoftSide is in your mailbox, ready
to provide you with still another
month of programming ecstasy.

HARDSIDE in conjunction with MICROMINT has solved the
TRS-80 I/O bottle-necl<. This new expansion interface,
designed by Steve Ciarcia, is described in detail in the June
issue of BYTE magazine. The COMM-80 provides the most used
features of the RS expansion interface into a single low-cost
($180 vs. $400) unit. The COMM-80 has a full 8-b)t parallel port
compared to the RS' printer-only port. There is also a built-in
RS-232-C interface (no extra board to purchase). A BUS
connector is provided for future expansion. And to really clean
up the I/O bottie-neclt, up to 16 of these units can be chained
together and addressed separately. The unit connects, with the
cable supplied, directly to the CPU/Keyboard or expansion
interface. This is the only interface you need to turn your TRS-
80 into a time-sharing terminal with provisions for a printer.
Terminal software is included. COMM-80 $179.95

Need to determine a PRINT @
position if only the X and Y co-
ordinates are known? It's simple tf
you use ttiis formula:
P=INT(Y/3)*64+INT(X/2)
where P is the PRINT @ position
and X,Y are the coordinates in a
graphic command such as
SET(X,Y}.
Shane Causer
Brunswick, Georgia
(Editor's note: It is possible to
reverse the procedure. Given a
PRINT @ position (P), the follow-
ing lines will give you the X and Y
values for SET/RESET com-
mands:
Y=3MNT(P/64}
X=2'{P-64*Y/3)
Each print position contains six
small graphics blocks. X and Y will
be the coordinates of the upper left
block in the PRINT @ position.)
If you are running some type o1
graphics which make use of
CHR${24) (Cursor left) and/or
CHR$(26} (Cursor down}, you can
save memory space by entering
these control characters directly
14
Hir^
from the keyboard. First enter the
line, but use two quotation marks
(""} where the CHR$(24) and
CHR$(26) would go. Then EDIT
the line. Space over until the first
quotation mark is visible. Then
press I (insert) and use [SHIFT)
left-arrow for each CHR$(24) and
[SHIFT] down-arrow lor each
CHR$(26),
Jimmy Dossey
Ocala, Florida
(Editor's note; The "cursor-up" or
CHR$(27) may also be entered
during EDlTing, but you have to be
sneaky; since [SHIFT] up-arrow
takes you OUT of l{nsert) mode,
you must use the C(hange)
command instead. Leave a blank
between the two quotes (" "),then
C{hange) the blank to a [SHIFT]
up-arrow.
You should also be aware that
these memory-saving techniques
should be avoided if you plan to
submit your finished program to
SoftSide— It's murder on the
LLISTings!)
When writing text strings to
tape, jt is annoying that commas,
semicolons and quotation marks
may not t>e contained within the
string. One way of getting around
this Is to examine each character
in each string and translate these
three (, ; ") toavalueiessthan32
or greater than 127 (ASCII values),
and to retranslate them when they
are read from tape. A much
simpler method of allowing
commas and semicolons In a
string is to enclose the string in
quotation marks before it Is
written. These will automatically
be removed by the computer
during input. One way of doing
this is the following:
10 Q$=CHR$(34);REM CHR$
(34) IS A QUESTION MARK
20 PRINT#-1,Q$+ST$+Q$
where ST$ is the string to be
written to tape. The trailing quote
may be omitted If desired.
Since SoftSlde Is devoted to
games and programming in
BASIC, I vfbuld like to suggest a
ganM which may t>e played by all
readers, at the same time giving
them wn opportunity to learn some
of the possibMlties available In
Level II BASIC It tuis often been
said of APL-programmers that
they enjoy writing "oneHlners" of
gjeat obscurity and performing as
much as possible with as few
characters as possible, l^vel H
BASIC actually provides the
capability of writing quite impres-
sive and complex programs in just
one line. Here are the suggested
game rules for BASIC "one-
liners":
1. The program must t>e written
as a single BASICIine of maximum
256 clutracters )n expanded form
(i.e. "PRINT" instead of "T)
2. The program must be self-
contained, i.e., not make any
assumptions about string storage
available, etc.
3. The program should provide
a continuously changing graphics
display, as impressive as possible.
Here are a few samples to start
you off:

A line was inadvertently omitted
from Arne's programming hint in

translate a variable D, containing a
decimal number from to 15, into
a hexadecimal string variable, H$,
you may use the expression:
H$=CHR$(48+f-?*([»3)>

ADVENTURES
Expanding
Universes
by James Garon
You awaken and look around
at your unfamiliar surroundings.
Closer examination reveals tliat
you are in:
a bed , . .a rocketship , . ,a forest
. . .a London flat . . .a chapel . . .a
desert . . .a ghost town . . .
Wherever you find yourself,
one thing is certain: an exciting
adventure has begun. Each
adventure is different from all the
rest; whether your goal is to
recover treasures, rescue an ex-
plorer, or steal the secret plans
from an enemy agent ■ you can be
sure that danger, challenge and
fascination lie ahead.
Adventures are often referred
to as "compunovels" because of
their uniquely interactive nature.
Seated before your patient com-
puter, you direct the course of the
adventure by issuing one - or two-
word commands such as, "GO
NORTH", "GET KEYS". "HELP",
"LOOK MIRROR", "GO
TUNNEL", "LIGHT FUSE" . . .
Many times, the results are
surprising; the computer's reply
could range from, "! SEE
NOTHING SPECIAL" thru
"THERE IS A HIDDEN DOOR" to
"IT BLEW UP IN MY HAND • I'M
DEAD!!"
Fortunately, in these rote-
playing sagas, death is never per-
manent - at worst It means you
must start over, and just possibly
there Is a secret word or hidden
exit which will let you live again.
Even when playing the very
17
same adventure, no two people
will have exactly the same ex-
periences. One person will brave-
ly break a mirror - possibly dying
In the resulting rain of sharp
glass splinters. Another, more
timid adventurer may pass by the
mirror dozens of times, seeing
only his or her reflection and be-
ing told that it is "VERY
PRETTY". Still a third, more ex-
perienced adventurer may
discover the enchanted bee-
Iteeper's suit, put it on, break the
mirror in safety, thus revealing a
previously concealed passage.
Common to most well-written
compunovels Is the feeling of an
expanding universe. Initially, you
may find yourself able to explore
only a few locations. The extreme
case Involves but a single room
•with no obvious exits at all. You
examine the objects around you,
picking them up, setting them
down and using them in any man-
ner you can think of - the obvious
ways as well as the creatively
obscure. You may try to beg,
burn, break or chant your way
beyond your current troundaries
(the last method being aided by a
magic word). Eventually you will
discover an escape from your
restricted territory - a new room
with new objects, new dangers
and new opportunities.
Let us make up an example.
(Discussing an actual situation
from a currently popular adven-
ture would risk spoiling the sur-
prise for future explorers.)
Perhaps you've discovered a
dangerously ticking bomb.
You've decided to try pouring
water on it in hopes of rendering
it harmless. Elsewhere you've
found a stream of water. Return-
ing excitedly to the stream, you
issue the command, "GET
WATER" only to be told, "I'VE NO
18
CONTAINER". Taking inventory
of your posessions, you see that
you are carrying a gun ■ with three
remaining bullets, a book of
Druid poetry and a croquet
mallet. Nowhere in your travels
have you seen a bucket, army
boot or other suitable container
for the desperately needed water.
While you may have felt, by this
time, that you'd been everywhere
and done everything there was to
be done, you now know you were
wrong. Somewhere there's an en-
trance to a place you've never
been. The entrance may be a
sliding panel, a trap door or the
ever popular magic word.
Whatever method eventually
works, your miniature universe Is
about to expand. Soon you'll
discover the hidden marine
museum, pick up the fish bowl,
discover a non-fatal method of
removing its man-eating oc-
cupants, refill it at the stream
and pour it on the bomb ■ which
just might melt away - revealing
In its innards the final treasure.
Once the pressure is off, and
you have time to think back,
you'll realize that - just as in a
well-written mystery novel, where
all the clues were in plain sight
yet psychologically Invisible • so
too, the entrance to the marine
museum was there all the time.
Finding it was just a matter of be-
ing both persistent and creative.
As there is a wide range of
talent among mystery writers,
from top-notch to merely
mediocre, so too with adventure
creators. Only a few, such as
Scott Adams, have mastered that
perfect blend of frustration and
progress - that knack for an-
ticipating the movements of his
explorers (us) and providing the
right amount of barriers, riddles
and solutions.
Some people have asked,
"What do you do with an adven-
ture once you have solved it?"
Unlike a mystery story, which Is
unchanging from one reading to
the next, adventures are worth
repeatlrtg. The knowledge ac-
quired in successfully solving an
adventure can be applied to
subsequent attempts. It is
always possible to try for a more
elegant solution, or one which re-
quires fewer moves.
Alternatively, you can invite a
friend to play, resisting the temp-
tation to be too liberal with your
tiints. It is surprising how dif-
ferent an adventure can be when
another person is in control. No
two people perceive a problem in
exactly the same way. Their ap-
proaches. Interpretation of clues
and eventual solutions may be
quite different from your own.
It is most humbling to watch
another player discover and use a
shortcut you have missed. (One
adventure contained a magic
carpet which whisks Its occupant
safely back and forth between
distant locations. Your author,
having solved the adventure
without ever using the silly rug,
was stunned to see a fellow ex-
plorer discover the secret of the
carpet and go on to relatively
easy victory.)
As a tool for teaching logic and
careful planning to young people
(and illogtcal adults) the adven-
ture is without equal. A skillful
adventure-writer guides the
adventurer to perceive relation-
ships between distant objects,
and expand his or her awareness.
When you experience your first
machine language adventure,
you'll wonder how you ever put
up with the slowness of BASIC.
The more complete and complex
an adventure is, the longer it
takes BASIC to respond to your
commands. Machine language
eliminates the waiting and pro-
vides instant response to your
commands. No sooner have you
typed "GO NORTH" (or simply
"N" using Scott Adam's
thoughtful shorthand) than you
find yourself immediately
transported to a new location. No
more waiting those interminable
seconds while BASIC scans a
vocabulary table, searching for
your command.
If you've never played an
adventure game in machine
language, you'll certainly enjoy
BASIC adventures. They are a
welcome and creative change
from the standard games of
Space Potatoes and the like. Just
a friendly warning though:
machine language adventures
are a quantum leap ahead of their
BASIC counterparts. Once you've
tried one, you'll t>e hooked; you
may never have the patience for
BASIC adventuring again.!

Featuring...Aliican Safari!
by Garth Jensen
SAVE YOUR QUARTERS!! Fast-
paced pinball has come to the
comfort of your own home on a
computer that runs for hours on
only pennies. Load the following
program, attach an amplifier
(optional), and you have an
exciting game complete witfi
realistic sight and sound effects.
The PINBALL MACHINE
includes four different variations:
1. African Safari — Raise your
rifle and shoot the charging
elephant before you're trampled.
2. Random Targets — Keep on
your toes as the rebounds in this
game are unpredictable.
3. Normal Pinball — Enjoy the
electronic version of the typical
arcade game.
4. Wipeout — Eliminate four
solid rows or targets and achieve a
22
perfect score. Be careful as the
playing area is compressed
toward the paddles.
Left and right flippers or paddles
are i ndependently operated fay the
"Z" and "/" keys, respectively.
Scores are continuously updated
and an overall rating provided at
the end of each game. Two levels
of difficulty are provided in each
game, creating challenge for
beginners and experts alike. Fire
this program up and see how you
rate as a pinball wizard.
Note: A machine language sound
routine is poked into the string
space defined at line 50. This line
is altered during execution, so
save the program before running.

TAKE APART: PINBALL
by Garth Jensen
If you need to move strings
around the video screen when the
content of the strings is
continually changing, try this
approach: Define dummy string
variables, then use VARPTR and
POKE to redefine the memory
locations referenced by the
dummy string names.
The PINBALL program
elsewhere in this issue illustrates
the technique. Lines 6090 and
6094 define 1 1 dummy strings
ZQ(I) then poke a video string
length of 64 bytes into VARPTR
(ZQ{1)). Next, the LSB and MSB of
video line addresses are poked
into VARPTR (ZQ(I))+1 and
VARPTR(ZQ(l))+2, respectively. If
line 1100 is executed, the string
defined as the 11th video line is
printed on the 12th line, the 10th
line is printed on the 1 1 th line, etc.
This allow/s the Wipeout portion of
PINBALL to lower the top 1 1 tines
of video intact, regardless of their
content.

ADVENTURELAND
by Scott Adams
The following two programs, ADVENTURE BUILDER and
ADVENTURE INTERPRETER, will allow you to create and play Scott
Adams' ADVENTURELAND in BASIC. BUILDER creates a data tape
(you'll need a C-60 cassette since the program runs for about 20
minutes) which is read by INTERPRETER.
(Editor's note: If you'd rather not wait for 20 minutes just to play the
game in BASIC, you can always order the fast-loading, instant-
response machine language version from TSE!)
As for the game itself, your goal is to explore the strange world in
which you will find yourself, and attempt to find "TREASURES*. Of
course, simply finding them is not sufficient; you must also discover
where they must be stored in order to earn points.
Part of the fun of all ADVENTURE games is discovering just what
ttie computer will allow you to do. Vou talk to the computer by means
of two-word sentences such as GO NORTH, GET AX, TAKE
INVENTORY and SAVE GAME. HELP and SCORE are words that may
be used by themselves. Since the computer knows over 1 00 words, if
one word doesn't accomplish what you want, try another.
You'll be meeting some fascinating and sometimes dangerous
creatures as you wander through ADVENTURELAND. Be brave and
irtventtve! In your attempts to recover the 'TREASURES*, you will
definitely find it helpful to draw a map.
That's all we're going to tell you! Happy Adventuring...

A COLUMN OF YOUR LEHEHS
The following Is an unsigned let-
ter from a software pirate;
I'm really getting a charge out
of all of you jumping on the band-
wagon about software pirates.
The idea that someone would
give away a copy of a program!
Well, I'll tell you guys something
•if someone at a meeting gives
me a program, I don't care if it
sells for $7.95 or $1 50.00 - I'm tak-
ing it!
I'm fed up with all your
magazines (or rags) printing the
same stuff only a month later
SNith a few changes. Do you think
I like getting 5 different ones in
the mail each month showing me
5 different ways of doing the
same program?
And how about purchasing a
program from Softside only to
see it free in 3 magazines later!
Well you get what you pay for.
(0 = 0)
I'll stop taking software when:
1 copy machines are taken
out of libraries;
2 you or any member of your
staff gets rid of betamax for
pirating movies;
3 any one of you stops tape
recording music off the radio;
and
4 when any member of any of
your families goes to a quick
copy center to get 40 copies of
sheet music for "church" choir
Instead of purchasing 40 original
copies at the music store.
Get off your soap boxes and do a
magazine. I can get sermons on
Sunday!
Editor's reply:
Whoever you are, you are cer-
tainly right about one thing: "You
get what you pay for." Several
well-known programmers have
already ceased their programm-
ing efforts due to the high ratio of
programs stolen to programs
sold. When the software market
dries up through the actions of
yourself and others with the
same attitude, there will be no
more programs for you to pilfer.
Then your $0.00 investment will
have paid off for us all.
In the June issue Edward Ting
wrote an article "Super Simple
Sound Interface for the TRS-80".
It's nice, but there's a simpler way.
Dig in your junk box and find
that little ear phone that came with
your transistor radio. (You could
get the one off your grandad's
hearing aid, but that wouldn't be
very nice.)
Put a blank tape in the recorder,
put it in Record mode and plug the
little ear phone into the EAR jack
on the recorder. You'll get sound!
If you have a little speaker in a little
radio that doesn't work, you can
cut the ear phone off the wire,
solder the wires to the speaker
terminals and plug that in. Mine
sounds great!

Until they go to school,
cftjtdrer) think that learning Is
fun, not work. Is this ttte
reason that they learn so
much faster in the early
years? And learning is great
play. With these games
children teach each other the
alphabet, addition and sub-
tractior), recognition of letters and words, even art as they play with pat-
terr»s on the screen. The games are written for ages four to six. The author
has a degree in education, with graduate study In child development and
counseling, plus a wide variety of teaching experience In industry, the
military, public and private schools, and churches. If you have children, and
you also have a TRS-80, then you should have Nina Games for Pre-School
Chlldran. All nine games and the menu are in the computer at one time, and
the children will quickly learn to select the one they want. Level II, 16K $9.E>5

Scott's long-awaited 9th adventure is here!
Thirteen treasures are hidden somewhere in
the GHOST TOWN. You'll need more
resourcefulness than ever to find them before
sunset. Be ready for a town full of surprises
and some REAL ghosts! Bring along a
sense of humor, but be alert for
danger as well. If you live so long, you
MAY learn the answer to the
tantalizing question:
"What goes on
in the saloon
after dark?"

THE KEY TO YOUR
TRS-80*...
LEARNING LEVELin
Written by the author of your Level I User's Manual, LEARNING LEVEL
II picks right up where the Level I Manual leaves off. It also supplies the
changes needed to make the Level I Manual compatible with your Level M
TRS-80*.
LEARNING LEVEL M covers all Level II BASIC beyond Level I, plus much
more. It shows you how to use the Editor, explains what the many error
me,ssages are really saying, and leads you thru conversions of Level 1 pro-
grams to Level II.
Dual cassettes, printers, the expansion interface with clock and other
features are explained in the same easy-to-learn style that made the Level I
Manual famous LEARNING LEVEL II was created specifically for
your Level II TRS-flO*! ^^ C QC Soft COVer
